Tampa, Florida — Alex Bury needed just about eight hours to score an outright win in Event 6 of the Winter Poker Open, a $250 buy-in Deep Stack Turbo tournament. For his efforts, Bury was rewarded with $9,133 and the property’s token guitar trophy.

The last-chance event drew a field of 145 entries easily surpassing the $20,000 guarantee. The $30,450 prize pool paid the top 18 finishers. Joining Bury in the money were Richard Doss (13th, $533) and Christine Holubeck (14th, $533). At the final table, Bury outlasted the likes of Nick Costarelis (ninth, $685), Cheri Beatty (sixth, $1,523) and heads-up opponent David Jackson who earned $5,024 for his second-place finish.

Bury is 32 years and resides here in Tampa where he works as a recruiting manager. Each of his now seven career cashes have come at the Seminole Hard Rock, but tonight’s victory marks his largest to date.

The Winter Poker Open’s last chance turbo is underway in the poker room at the Seminole Hard Rock. Players in the event take their seats to 20,000 chips and will play 15 minutes levels throughout. The tournament boasts a $20,000 guarantee and will see its champion earn one of the property’s token guitar trophies.
